Phyllis Schlafly: Big Brother Obama Is Watching
Public servants transmogrify to masters. It has become evident that Barack Obama's definition of "fundamentally
transforming the United States" includes Big Brother harassing selected
conservatives while monitoring everybody's email and telephone traffic.
These seem to be among the surprising duties of the Internal Revenue
Service ... MOREMark J. Fitzgibbons: Audit The IRS
Unlimited government always becomes lawless. Lois Lerner and other officials at the IRS should be grateful that they do not live in 18th century America when tar and feathering were considered appropriate "remedies" against lawbreakers in government. Better yet for the IRS that this is not late 18th century France. The Tea Party ... MOREEric Shawn: EPA's Bad Treatment Of Conservative Groups
It's not just the IRS. A second federal agency is facing a probe and accusations of political bias over its alleged targeting of conservative groups. The allegations concern the Environmental Protection Agency, which is being accused of trying to charge conservative groups fees while largely exempting liberal groups. The fees applied to Freedom ... MORESasha Goldstein: Obama's Culture Of Corruption
IRS misconducted was prompted by White House. President Obama's administration, fronted by a "paid liar" of a spokesman, has created an anti-conservative atmosphere that led to IRS scrutiny of right-leaning organizations, top Republicans said Sunday. "The culture of the president calling Tea Party groups terrorists and tea-baggers, ... MOREJeffrey Folks: Christie Conservatism
The president's bulky and ungainly doormat. Once again, Chris Christie has walked the Jersey Shore with President Obama, and once again he has enunciated what his brand of conservatism means. It is not, he said, an attempt to gain political advantage or advance one's ideology. Nothing so ungenerous as that. It's the opportunity ... MORE
The IRS Fiasco Is Only The Tip Of The Iceberg.
by Henry I. Miller. You certainly hear some amazing things in congressional testimony. Lois Lerner, the head of the IRS unit that determines whether organizations receive tax-exempt status, claimed last week that she had neither done anything wrong nor lied about her involvement in the discrimination against conservative and ... MOREShikha Dalmia: The Conservative Welfare State
Ann Coulter is no friend of liberty. Conservative crank Ann Coulter has made a career out of bad manners, so it was no surprise when she slammed her libertarian hosts at the annual International Students for Liberty confab in February as “pussies.” That was almost a compliment, compared to “drunks” and “horny hicks,” two other terms ... MOREThe IRS Targeted Conservatives Because It Could
by Peter Suderman. The opening day excuse for the
IRS targeting conservative groups requesting tax exempt status was
that the IRS was facing an unusual influx of applicants. But that
turns out not to have been the case. Applications for tax exempt
501 groups didn’t surge in 2010. In fact, the
number of applicants was
down in every category from ... MOREObama Scandals Bring MSNBC To 7-Year Low
by Dominic Patten. The scandals of the Obama administration seem to be hurting not just the White House but MSNBC as well, while Fox News Channel has just scored its second-best week of the year. After double-digit gains during last year’s presidential election, May 13-17 saw the progressive-aligned “Lean Forward” news network hit new lows ... MOREObama's Scandals Reveal The True Face Of Government
by Steven Greenhut. The Obama administration has gotten itself into a fix between its contradictory stories about the Benghazi incident, reports of the IRS targeting conservative groups, and the Justice Department’s grabbing of phone records from AP reporters. There are few things more fun to watch than arrogant political leaders -- folks ... MOREAndrew Moylan: Don't Tax The Internet
Beware of the "Marketplace Fairness Act." Senate Republicans will face a fork in the road this week when Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., forces a vote on a measure paving the way for expanded state sales tax collection for online purchases. The route Durbin would have them take would eventually lead to passage of the so-called “Marketplace Fairness Act,” a bill ... MORERick Moran: Libertarians On The Rise At CPAC
What about the social conservatives? This account by the Daily Beast's Michael Moynihan highlights the virtual libertarian takeover of CPAC this year and what it means for Rand Paul: When Rand Paul addresses those issues that divide libertarians and traditional conservatives-national security, the drug war, immigration, gay rights-he does so ... MOREJohn Stossel: Libertarian's Awkward Bedfellows
Limited government advocates are not morally suspect. Last week, Conservative pundit Ann Coulter told me and a thousand young libertarians that we libertarians are puss- -- well, she used slang for a female body part. We were in Washington, D.C., at the Students for Liberty conference, taping my TV show, and she didn't like my questions ... MORELouis Woodhill: Time To Bury The GOP And Start Over
Death to clueless conservatism! In his January 18 article, “Go for the Throat!”, John Dickerson, Slate’s chief political correspondent, called on President Obama to “declare war” on the Republican Party. Calm down, John. There is no need for Obama to get (politically)
violent. At the national level, the Republican Party is near death
anyway. ... MORE
